What was claimed to be the biggest
hog in the .world died in Columbus
the past week. It was the property of
Frank Williams, and weighed over a
thousand pounds. The animal was
over four feet high and was seven feet
and nine inobea io girth, and was
about ten feet long. Its owner had
just brought him in from a tour of
exhibition, and the hog died at the
end of the journey. Northern parties
had made flattering offers to Mr. Wil

Miss Ellie Smith, the popular young
teacher at Fairview academy, which is
situated three miles below the city,
gave a candy puliing last Friday even
ing at the academy for the amusement
of her pupils and friends. The affair
Was a decided success and everyone
present had a delightful time, with the
probable exception of three or four
town boys, who happened down on
their wheels, and who were made the
unwilling victims of a practical joke.
The sticky candy offered too great an
opportunity for the joker, and he pro
ceeded to smear the aforesaid candy
all over the saddles of the town boys
wheels. Sad was their discomforture
when the candy was discovered, but
too late. One of the boys got a bad
fall in trying to dismount, for the
wheel did not want to part company
with the rider. The boys, with one
exception, took the joke good natured
ly and laughed the matter over; the
exception, however, is reported to have
used a good many cuss words, and
sadly bemoaned the fate of bis best
Bunday pantaloons. To cap it all, the
story leaked out some how, and the
boys have been the laughing stock of
the whole town for the past few days.—

There is more Catarrh in this section of
he country than all the other diseases pnt
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurab e. For a 'great
many yean doctors pronounced it a local
disease, and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a consti
tutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
00. Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu
tional care on the market. (It is taken in
ternally In doses from 10 drops to a tea

and mucous surfaces of the system. They

fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes

THE SUDAN SPIDERS.
r» Uw Happily la th* Maa Ope MaM
Get Used u> th* Inwct*.
If one wants to live happily in the
Bndau, oue must get used to spiders.
They crawl into your dressing bag or
come upon tho table while you are wash
ing, taking great interest in soap and
tooth powder and all toilet requisites.
Disturbed, they retire into your sponge
•nd remain there till they arc drowned
out. Oue must also beconys accustomed
to sand or dust storms, for they are fre
quent and terrible disturbers of yonr
comfort. They come upon you suddenly
when you are quite unaware of their
close proximity, just as express trains
at a busy junction surprise the passenger
uninitiated in the mysteries of signal
ing. There is a distinct sound like the
coming of a train, then a rush by and
the after draft Palms rwny and bow
their rustling fronds to the earth, and
eddies of dust buffet you on all sides,
lifting you from your feet. Tents are
turned inside out, scattering their con
tents to the winds, or everything is in
crusted with an impalpable powder,
which seals up one’s eyes, plugs one’s
nose and ears or chokes one with the
nauseating sweepings of a foul campipg
.ground. As I am writing this a dust
hurricane which has been making life
miserable for the last three days is still
blowing. /
The fierce blast of the wind makes
metal so hot that the beat from the nib
carrying the ink to paper dries up the
fluid before a line can well be penned.
The sweat of the hand, too, mixed with
the layer of dust on the paper, so soils
the manuscript that one feels loath to
send it The flies, seeking your tent for
shelter from the cruel blast without,
cling to your nose and eyelids with a
tenacity which is almost maddening.
At meals each dish is covered with grit
before it can be consnmed, and one has
to nurse odd corners of the tent to shield
one’s cup from the puffs of dust beating
np from under the canvas before one can
get a drink that is not absolutely mud
dy.—London Standard.
RIP VAN WINKLE.
Jefferson Discovers Something Incongru
ous About His Celebrated Play.
Joe Jefferson calls attention to an in
teresting fact regarding Rip Van Win
kle. He says:
“There is one incongruity in Rip Van
Winkle which is seldom criticised.
Possibly none of you ever noticed it
Indeed, I will confess that until recent
ly the fact never occurred to me with
any force. Well, you could never guess,
so I will tell you. It is this: Rip Van
Winkle is the only person in the play
who speaks English with a slightly
broken Dutch accent. All of the other
characters are obliged to content them
selves with ordinary English.
“It heightens the effect for Rip to
speak as he does in broken accents, but
if all the other characters were to at
tempt a dialect there would be such a
variety of accent that the effect would
he incongruous and ridiculous. All the
feeling and sentiment of tho play would
be lost in this polyglot attempt at dia
lect
“Several years ago a man engaged to
play Nick Vedder came on at rehearsal
and commenced to talk in the broadest
low Dutch accent. I stopped him at
once, but in his own defense he ex
claimed:
“ ‘But Nick Vedder would talk that
way, wouldn’t he, if Rip Van Winkle
did?’
“ ‘Yes, ’ I replied, ‘he would, but you
mustn’t.’ And no doubt the man
thought mo very unreasonable. But this
only illustrates the point that many
things apparently illogical must be done
on the stage to secure effect by inspir
ing the imagination. Absolute realism
would be fatal. Under certain condi
tions it is the necessity of dramatic art
to make the impossible seem real.” —
Milwaukee Wisconsin.
Meaaurea of Distance.
A traveler in Florida says that on be
ing asked how far a certain place was a
native replied: “Waal, I reckon hit’s
’bout two whoops. P’r’ps hit may be
some furder, ” he continued reflectively,
“but I Tow hit ain’t more’n two whoops
an a holler.” In Arkansas they will tell
you it is two looks and a go by, mean
ing you are to pass two houses and find
your destination just beyond the next.
In other parts of the west, it is said,
the natives measure distances in
“chaws” of plug and will tell you your
destination is about “two chaws” away.
The Scottish way is to say, “It’s a far
cry, ” meaning it is about as far as one
can shout, while in many cases distance
is measured in time, the German
“stunde” doubtless having its origin
thus.
Perfumed Cloth la Now Sold.
Druggists in New York keep a per
fumed cloth that is sold by the yard. It
is imported and is by some process
known to perfumers saturated with a
sachet powder or essence that is very
strong and lasting. It comes as high as
$8 and $lO a yard, but is very wide,
and one-fourth of a yard is a generous
supply. Small pieces, three inches
square or less, are sewed in hats, dress
waists and skirts and are laid in glove
and handkerchief boxes and chiffonier
drawers. When it is considered that a
fine sachet sells for sl, these perfumed
lengths are really economical.

A WONDERFUL CATALOGUE.
Th* Wark Done on the I.bt of Book* In
tbe DrltUl. Museum.
A wonderful catalogue—ln ‘ fact, the
moat remarkable production of its kind in
the whole world—ie the general catalogue
of tho British rouaeuiu reading room. Nor
U this surprising. considering that this
reading room is Itaelf the most wonderful
library in the world, and that its many
millions of volumes, if placed In a single
row, would extend to nearly 87 miles.
Every reader of the museum is familiar
with the great circular shelves in the cen
ter of the reading room, which have been
constructed to take the almost innumer
able volumes of this mammoth catalogue.
It might be supposed that these volumes
would grow in numlier with tho increase
of the library until they came to occupy a
gigantic apartment all to themselves. Tho
contrary is the case. Whereas they origi
nally consisted of nearly 3,000 folio vol
umes, they aro"being stead ly reduced, so
that it is hoped that ultimately there will
only be about a third of this number. This
is due to the fact that formerly the cata
logue was written, but it is now printed.
It is supposed that by the time we have en
tered tho twentieth century the printing of
this enormous work—under the editorship
of Mr. A. W. K. Miller—will bo complete.
Not that in reality such a compilation can
ever be really complete, for there will al
ways be accessions to enter. The mere
entering up of accessions costa the museum
from £BOO to £I,OOO a year, while for the
printing of the catalogue itself for many
years past the government has made a
grant to the trustees'of about £3,000 a
year.
It has no doubt surprised many persons
to observe that the catalogue volumes are
of different colors. Some are blue, some
are green and others are red. The explana
tion of this curious arrangement is very
simple. There are three copies—the read
er’s copy, a reserve copy and a working
copy. When any alteration has to be made
in the reader’s copy, a reserve copy is put
in its place while this is being done. The
working copy is for the use Os the officials.
Tho system on which the catalogue is
compiled is a very interesting one. It is
based on the famous 91 rules drawn up in
1839 by Panizzi, the first museum libra
rian.
When the present catalogue is entirely
completed, the authorities will enter upon
the publication of a great subject cata
logue. Provisionally installments of such
a work have already been Issued by Mr.
Fortescue.—London Mail. '
What the Greek Has.
“Whatdo you thinkof the Greeks now?”
is a question often asked me, and it is gen
erally accompanied by a smile, for the
Englishman in his heart always believes
that might is right and that a nation
which has been defeated by a race nearly
80 times its size must have committed
some enormous sin. But before I went
out I did not think much of the Greeks
one way or other. I only thought of their
cause, and it seems to mo certain that the
historian who in a hundred years narrates
the dismemberment of the Turkish empire
and the deliverance of the peoples now
under its sway will speak of this quixotic
attempt of Greece with natural enthusi
asm. As to the Greeks themselves, their
failings, like our own, are obvious enough.
They are, it is true, rather strange failings
for so old a race, for they are the fallings
of children.
I remember a fifth form master in a
great public school once putting the em
barrassing question, “What had the
Greeks?” and after passing it down the
form in vain he exclaimed, with a sigh:
“Oh, don’t you even know that? Why, a
lively imagination.” Well, the Greeks
have retained that quality in daily life,
though not in art. Like imaginative chil
dren, they romance with entire ease, and
the fertility of their Invention is only
equaled by the simple confidence with
which they credit the inventions of others.
By the time one Action has been exposed
they are greedy for the next, and it is in
variably supplied. This peculiarity gives
an obvious advantage to journalism, and
I suppose there is no country in which
journalism is so dominant and-so harmful.
But that was not the worst result of the
imaginative faculty in the war. It made
the men conscious of danger and oversen
sitive to it. They rated the risk even higher
than it was. They realized to the full the
horror of death. Perhaps they exaggerated
it Poor and hard as the life of the com
mon Greek is he loves it. He much prefers
it to death.—Contemporary Review.
Edward Everett Hale.
Dr. Hale served the ministry in Wash
ington for a year or two and from 1846 to
1856 in Worcester, where he is affectionate
ly remembered in many ways and partic
ularly as founder of its public library, and
he was commissioned pastor of the South
Congregation church 41 years ago, where
he is marrying and baptizing the children
and grandchildren of his early parishion
ers. But he does not belong to the South
Congregational church. He has always
maintained that to give oneself fully to
any particular work, and especially to
that es the ministry, to make the gift real
ly great, one must enlarge oneself by the
widest service which intensifies the man
and makes him able to offer a worthy
offering. So he has had a planetary influ
ence. through his institution of “Ten
Times One Is Ten” and “Lend a Hand,”
of Wadsworth clubs and Lend a Hand
clubs all over the world, in every sort'of
philanthropic work, economic, social and
industrial.
His progress through the west a year or
two ago was a kind of peaceful triumph.
No name is more familiar on the lips of
good men everywhere. His literary work
has been stupendous, reaching to 50 vol
umes and tenfold 50 volumes’in uncollect
ed articles, studies and sermons. He has
caught the popular fancy as few purely
literary men have ever done with “My
Double and How He Undid Me” and “The
Man Without a Country.” But these are
only unconsidered trifles in the bibliog
raphy of the prolific author who is now
delighting everybody with the reminis
cences of his rich acquaintance with men
and things, the expression of a ripe mind,
full without prolixity, liberal without
garrulity and instructive without pedan
try. —Time and the Hour.
